during a full moon i observed
a man trip over
a log
in the woods
my grandfather said
this is what happens
“when the mawin’ ain’t done!”
so in the morning
i set a flame to the forest
a scene was set
with this amber waterfall
all the forest critters ran, so come morning only hardened turds remained
a wind ran through the naked land
and set doubt in my heart
but there is no difference what i do
for it always continues
